UC San Diego Health Orthopedics in Encinitas brings academic-level musculoskeletal care to North County through its Garden View Road clinic in New Encinitas. As an extension of the UCSD School of Medicine orthopedic department—official team physicians for the San Diego Padres, San Diego Seals, and UCSD Tritons—the Encinitas office connects patients to more than 20 subspecialized orthopedists, a referral depth that includes primary care coordination with Kind Health Group. Subspecialties represented at the Encinitas location include hip and knee replacement, minimally invasive spine surgery, sports medicine with upper-extremity reconstruction, and complex spinal deformity correction. Physician-researchers at the practice contribute to clinical trials and translational studies that inform surgical technique and rehabilitation innovation, a research-driven care model complemented by integrative pain management at Chong Acupuncture & Integrative Medicine. Highest-acuity procedures include computer-navigated total joint arthroplasty, minimally invasive lateral lumbar interbody fusion, and microsurgical replantation and tissue transfer for traumatic upper-extremity injuries.
